FBI will not share access to Alex Pretti shooting evidence with Minnesota officials, BCA says

FBI will not share access to Alex Pretti shooting evidence with Minnesota officials, BCA says

After weeks of calling for a joint and cooperative investigation into the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal immigration agents, state officials have formally received a response: No.

The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) announced Monday that the FBI has formally notified the agency that it will not share access to any information or evidence connected to the Pretti killing.

BCA officials say they’ve reiterated requests for access to evidence for Good’s killing, as well as the Jan. 14 shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis. However, state officials still haven’t received a definitive answer on whether or not the feds will reverse course and cooperate in those

“While this lack of cooperation is concerning and unprecedented, the BCA is committed to thorough, independent and transparent investigations of these incidents, even if hampered by a lack of access to key information and evidence,” the BCA said in a press release. “Our agency has committed to the FBI and Department of Justice that should its stance change we remain willing to share information that we have obtained with that agency and would welcome a joint investigation. We will continue to pursue all legal avenues to gain access to relevant information and evidence.”

Maybe we're past that point. Hope the state prosectors are tenacious.

believed they would, right? Not unless it was tampered with or completely useless.
